How do you appear to your work colleagues?

In general, when I’m out, if I see someone who is attractive I will usually open them. This is obviously great from a personal point of view. However, people around you don’t always share your assumptions.

Eg, work colleagues, who are keen to get a bit of gossip, and keen to spread nonsense rumours such as ‘he’s a creep’ – or ‘he read this book about game, and...’

I’m due to start somewhere new soon, so I’d like to know what you think about this.

As a recent mini example, I just worked at a festival with a bunch of young people. I was speaking to all of the people there, and flirting with customers and staff. At one time, a girl accused me of being a ‘womaniser’ – actually, I kept my frame and honesty up, and she ended up being attracted to me.

I obviously will be confident and socially able, but I’m keen to avoid any pit-falls when out. Any thoughts on this?

Being overly honest can get you into trouble. E.g. ‘ I’ve joined a community of seduction specialists – we go out together and systematically get better at picking up girls’ – doesn’t exactly bode well for comfort.
